What I mean is that it's a better use of my time and energy to identify and approach people I am deeply compatible with and can build oases and vital cells* with, rather than getting into it with people who very clearly just in it for themselves.

You've said before that the default, especially for white and/or suburban and/or financially secure folks, is that you can't trust turning your back to them. Why rehash the rule, instead of trying to uncover the exceptions?

If there's one thing the failure of the civil rights movement taught me, it's that even the ones you think you can trust when the tide is low will show their asses the minute the waterline's two inches up the walls on Main Street.

I'd like to believe there are some that aren't outright feral ghouls; but I can't make that assertion until I've seen every last bit of ass-showing I can see. Up til now, I've operated under blanket assumption that none of them can be. Now, I want to know the exacts.

I know it doesn't mean much from a random internet white person but when the day comes I'll be on the fuckin barricades with you.
